Emerging Tecnologies

Software development is a constantly evolving industry, because it must be to accommodate for the myriad products and problems that need to be built and solved. Technology has evolved at an incredible pace over the last decade, from the rise of sophisticated  mobile platforms, to VR, machine learning, and the increased prominence in online web applications. I’ll go through a few types of newer software that I think are interesting.

Android Development

Android is, in the grand scheme of things, not a recent technology. But is a prominent and widely used one. It also is a technology that is constantly being improved and updated by google. The latest release of android, Oreo, brought with it a host of new features to improve the user experience in Android devices. These features include picture and picture mode, the ability to have an app that uses video play in the corner of the screen while the user uses other apps. It also brought new improvements to the OS, allowing for faster processing, and accessibility features, like improved notifications. The most interesting new feature, in my opinion, is the ability to use Kotlin for android development. Previously, android apps were written in Java. With the release of Android Oreo, you can write android apps with Kotlin, which is a language based on Java, that helps remove a lot of the. boiler plate code that is required in Java. It functions similarly to Swift, for iOS development.

Web Development

With the rise of web apps in recent years, Web development is becoming incredibly prominent, as are the various frameworks that exist around it. These frameworks, such as ReactJs, AngularJs, Ruby-on-rails, and ASP.net, provide a very powerful development environment that help produce robust, stable, usable software that runs in the browser. These frameworks also cover multiple coding languages, including JavaScript, C#, and Ruby.

With the amount of Frameworks that exist for web development, it can seem slightly daunting to choose one for a project. A good idea is to look at some prominent websites and web apps that have been produced using them.

ReactJS was created and continues to be used by Facebook, and is used by them, and other sites, such as Airbnb.

AngularJs is an incredibly popular framework, that has been used by the Guardian, Lego, and Goodbody stockbrokers.

Asp.net is an older framework, but is still in use. A very prominent use of Asp.net is in the Microsoft CRM platform, Dynamics CRM.
